If there is a knife in the kitchen, we keep it out of their reach. If there are cleaning bottles in the bathroom, we lock the cabinets.

As every parent understands, parenting never ends.

Our children will grow and mature, and with age comes bigger problems than the Pine-Sol under the counter, or the set of stairs in the kitchen.
